Two retired army officers accidentally found a badge and a skeleton somewhere in the desert south of Texas. So Sam Deese, a policeman from a nearby town, began to investigate the whole story. In the preliminary investigation, Sam came to a bar. In the course of his conversation with the boss, Sam got some past things from the boss, including Sam's father, Baudidis, and a notorious sheriff. It turned out that the bar owner had been forced by this evil sheriff, but there was nothing he could do about it. Thus, a series of old stories and new discoveries begin.
